Chapter 407: Abduction Or Betrayal?

"Adam" exclaimed Cole who lost control of his Wind Elemental Affinity after Adam suddenly released his killing intent.

He was unsure why Adam suddenly became angry and released his killing intent, but he was more worried about saving him from hitting the ground which would greatly injure him or kill him at the height that he fell from.

However, what shocked him was that despite falling, Adam still kept his balance in the air and had turned around before suddenly releasing a burst of energy that launched him in the direction that they had just left from.

'How is he able to do that and is he returning back to Emma and Sarah? Don't tell me something happened to them' thought Cole to himself as he watched Adam burst off at speeds that he was unable to match even with his Wind Elemental Affinity and followed after him.

What Ava had said to Adam that had caused him to become so angry was something that he had never expected and Adam blamed himself for letting his guard down.

{There is a demonic and evil presence at Emma and Sarah's residence and I was only able to sense it because of the disturbance in space. It means that the evil individuals used a Space/Transportation Crystal. They are there to likely abduct your friends} revealed Ava.

Adam had already sensed danger and didn't doubt Ava or the system, so he couldn't hold back his killing intent and anger that caused anyone with sharp enough senses to feel a chill run down their spine.

"Did you feel that wave of fear? That was your so-called friend coming for us" said the female figure that wore black robes that had a red moon sigil on it with a smile.

She was instructed by her master not to battle with Adam, but if he was to intervene in the capturing of his friends, she was allowed to knock him back or take him down without severely injuring him or killing him.

Licking her lips, she was excited to get to face such a strong opponent, but what the two girls said next shocked her greatly.

"You mean Adam is coming now. What do we do?" asked Sarah.

"Stop being such a wuss Sarah, this is finally our chance to become strong and even though I understood and appreciate Cole and Adam, they are underestimating and undervaluing us. If we go with her, she can give us all the power in the world" stated Emma who had become blinded by the desire for power and to be on par with her peers.

Sarah was beginning to feel the same way and the mysterious female figure had appeared out of nowhere and promised them all they could ever wish for.

She was extremely beautiful and had a slender and tall figure, but her sickly pale skin and black eyes also gave her a frightening and intimidating appearance.

Along with that, she had long nails that were sharp and black and matched with her black robes, one couldn't help but fear her, but she gave them a smile and seemed friendly.

"I will accept this deal with the devil. Take us with you and we will accept your conditions" decided Emma and Sarah.

The conditions and rewards would change their lives and they would be leaving behind everything that they had, but they couldn't help but still seek the greatness that was on offer despite the cost.

Sarah hadn't mentioned it, but her father had died over the past year after this body became very weak and was no longer able to hold out, while Emma didn't like her family or see them as family after the issues they had with them.

They both felt as though they had nothing to lose and Emma wanted to never have to rely on or wait for Cole, wanting to become powerful enough for Cole to seek her.

While Sarah wanted the acknowledgement of Adam who she knew wasn't stupid and could tell how she was feeling, but never gave her emotions the light of day.

In truth, they were being manipulated by the evil woman that appeared to them and offered them everything they wanted, but the evil woman was surprised by how easy it was for them to willingly come with them.

She had been instructed to capture and abduct the two girls, but also see if they had what it took to become one of them and join them willingly.

All it took was an intense desire that would push one to the point of not caring about morals, ethics or anything else that was in the way of acquiring what they wanted.

"Then we shall be on our way and you two will have the please of seeing the master. Few have seen him in person and most that did are no longer alive to tell the tale, or are his top subordinates that live and are treated as royalty with all the power they could ever crave" 

As she said that, she placed her palms on the two girls in order to make physical contact with them, which was required for them to all use the same Space Crystal.

Adam sensed the use of a large amount of energy and Ava informed him that it was the activation of a Space Crystal, and it was clear that it was to transport more than one individual.

Activating his Bloodlust Characteristic, Adam released even more power and smashed straight through the wall of their house to see Sarah, Emma and the robed evil woman disappear.

"No, don't go" he called out as he went to attack the robed woman.

He could see the slight guilt on Sarah's expression, but could also see that they had gone with their own free will and they weren't being forced to go.

Before they were transported to another space, the robed woman gave Adam an evil smile and winked at him as she disappeared just as Adam's fist was about to land on her.
